When I returned home and did some research I discovered that sidewall failures are a known issue with these tires. I will say that I had hit a pothole, while driving this car, weeks before my tire failed. I have hit many potholes over the years, while driving other cars and have never had a tire failure. I believe there is a flaw in this tire. …”
